What a comeback win agaist LSU last night. Down like 15 with 4 and a half minutes to play. Dominated for the first 35 minutes and they pull off a sick comeback to win by 1.

John - UMASS beats Syracuse then loses to UIPUI. What gives? Loss to Northern Iowa - not pretty either.

HC - tough loss to a quality Dayton team, this weekend.

Holy Cross improved to 6-0 with a sound thumping of Yale Wednesday night. Definitely a nice start to the season. I think they have a good well balanced team this year. They don't have that athletic, go-to guy, that can create their own shot, as they have in the past. No Keith Simmons, no Kevin Hamilton. I worry a little about their play at PG. Torrey Thomas is gone. Pat Doherty is a Jr. and has played a lot, but his inability to shoot from the perimeter can be exploited. The team has a lot of experience and has played a lot together. They are 8 deep, too, which is helpful. They can get scoring from Vander Baan, Cunningham, and Clifford, which does give them options, inside and out. But, Doherty has to make a shot now and again.

Also, the ol' Alma Mater, Assumption off to a 5-1 start. Keep up the good work boys. Northeast-10 title?
